TONY JUST STOPPED LISTENING

WE don't like to say we told you so, Tony, but... Read

Letter: Mail Box - Barmy Bank Put Football First

I CAN'T believe dopehead Pete Doherty got out of jail after serving just a third of his sentence due to overcrowding. What kind of feeble excuse is that - especially as we saw photos of him actually taking heroin while he was inside? - George Drummond, Govan, Glasgow. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Don't Listen To Critics, Darius

AT a time when both Old Firm clubs are trying to tackle the issue of sectarianism, Artur Boruc's Pope T-shirt stunt was just plain daft. This stupid gesture was likely to make the problem worse and the SPL should have wasted no time in taking action against him. Get real, Artur. - Peter Miller, Dundee. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Points Of View

I'M not a great fan of Taggart but last week's episode about the bloke murdered by a lift was a cracker. It had me on the edge of my seat. - May Smith, Ayr. Read

Letter: Mail Box - 2 Is Still My No.1

CHRIS MOYLES may be catching up on Terry Wogan in radio ratings but the blarney merchant is still No.1 in my book. Anyone who can cheer me up on a Monday morning is OK by me. - Jean Jackson, by email. Read

Letter: Mail Box - £95k And Docs Are Still Sick

LAST week's free Scottish Slimmers magazine was fantastic. The delicious recipes and advice from slimmer Lisa Milburn have inspired me to try to beat my own bulge. If gorgeous Lisa can lose 18 stone I can shift my love handles too. Great reads and a bikini body - thanks Sunday Mail! - K. Hall, Dingwall. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Jack The Brad

I WAS dismayed when I saw the latest pictures of heartthrob Brad Pitt. With his gelled hair and glaikit expression he looks just like Corrie's troubled teen David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd). - M.C., Ayr. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Points Of View

WHY do programme makers have to mess about with a successful format? Since Channel 4 moved Come Dine With Me to a prime-time slot, it has gone downhill big time. Please let's go back to the five-day format and show us a bit more cooking and less bitching. - Helen Weir, Aberdeen. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Crude Way To Treat Your Workers, Jim

THE warden in my grandfather's sheltered complex has been his lifeline for years. But his hours have been cut to part-time and the quality of life for everyone has deteriorated. It is shameful the way this human link has been cut. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Stop Defending The Mccanns

ELAINE C. SMITH sparked a big readers' debate last week when she said it was time to stop criticising Kate and Gerry McCann: Read

Letter: Mail Box - Points Of View

THERE were only a few laughs on ITV's satirical comedy sketch show Headcases. It isn't a patch on its predecessor Spitting Images. The computer figures are good but it's not a 'must see'. - J. Anderson, Aberdeen. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Council Staff

RE Elaine C. Smith's article on council spending and cuts: how true it was. Why should council staff be allowed the equivalent of three weeks sick pay each year when we poor souls are penalised when we're off for any length of time and are given warnings for being off for too long in each working year? Read

Letter: Mail Box - Connery Abandoned

THERE was no need for Ewan McGregor to apologise to Sean Connery - he was absolutely right in what he said. Connery abandoned Scotland years ago and only returns on special occasions to voice his opinion - then goes back to the sun. - M. Mullen, Blantyre. Lanarkshire. Read

Letter: Mail Box - We Sympathise With The Oaps

WE sympathise with the OAPs at Quarrier Court, Ayrshire, and admire their fight for their wardens. We are tenants of link sheltered housing in Lanarkshire and they are also trying to take our wardens away. The warden is our lifeline and is there for us. A call centre is not the same. Many of us could die without our warden. - Sheltered housing tenants. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Alexander Is Quoted

RE your article on the scrapping of wardens in sheltered housing in Ayrshire: Wendy Alexander is quoted as blaming this on the SNP freezing council tax. This is absolute rubbish. Read

Letter: Mail Box - I Can Understand Politicians

I CAN understand politicians going on fact-finding trips but I was furious to read about Glasgow City councillors spending more than £24,000 of our hard-earned cash on trips to flower shows. They certainly don't come out of it smelling of roses. - Ian Gray, Hyndland, Glasgow. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Full Marks To Duncan Bannatyne

FULL marks to Duncan Bannatyne of TV's Dragon's Den who plans to leave his fortune to charity. I hope he succeeds in his quest to make his fellow millionaires cough up for good causes. - Mary Grant, Livingston. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Craig Brown's

CRAIG BROWN'S view that Ally MacLeod should not be included in the SFA Hall of Fame is a bit mean. Ally wasn't a symbol of failure but one of hope. - Robert Graham, Inverness. Read

Letter: Mail Box - Sorry To Read Of The Death

SORRY to read of the death of Chalton Heston. He was a great actor who really had presence. Just a shame he blighted his career with his right-wing, pro-gun stance. Will Americans never learn? - Jim White, Hamilton. Read
